Signed up for dlvr.it to replace Twitterfeed since it's shutting down. Won't quite do all of what I'd used Twitterfeed for but it's a reasonable start. (Apologies if you're seeing double the tweets @RocklawnArts for a few more days.)

It turns out that this is a collection of other volumes which I'd already read including The Hiketeia, The Mission, Down to Earth, Stoned, Ripples, Leaks, Bitter Pills. On the upside, I'd been thinking recently about rereading them and this collects them all in one place.

The Mission and Down to Earth are my favorites. I like that Diana has no secret identity in these. She's Wonder Woman, the ambassador of Themyscira, a member of the Justice League: she doesn't have time for a secret identity but we do get to see her more as Diana whether she's talking to fellow Amazons or her embassy staff or at a reading of her book of essays on her beliefs and philosophies.

The weather was unseasonably warm for a few days this week, so I spent more time outside hiking and photographing than I'd anticipated.

Shot 669 photographs and 9 videos. I've just started going through them but have far to go. A bit past peak autumn but still beautiful and there was some gorgeous light. Also took some epic panoramas that need to be stitched. Did a few today, one I think was comprised of 11 photos! I should've taken a few placeholder start/stop images to make it easier to tell what was intended for panorama or not.

Added some select photographs to new Metal Art Prints and also created a new collection for them:

While getting my teeth cleaned, my dentist popped in to see if my hygienist needed him to check anything. She didn't, but we chatted teeth for a minute while he looked at my x-rays and notes from last time.

Just as he was about to step back into the hall, I said, "On an unrelated note, watch Wynonna Earp." I know he likes sci-fi, so I thought I'd throw it out there.

He leaned forward and asked, "What's that?"

I took a breath and said, "Wynonna Earp is the great-great-granddaughter of Wyatt Earp and she kills revenants, demon outlaws, that Wyatt killed who are resurrected. It's funny, it has great action. It's not sci-fi, but if you liked Buffy, you'll like it."

"That sounds great!" he said with genuine enthusiasm. "Where's it on?"

"SyFy. The first season's done but it's coming back for season 2 next year, so you have plenty of time to catch up."

The brassieres you'd forgotten about in the back of that drawer were there because they are ill-fitting. Since I have no plans to gain 20+ pounds—which is what it would take for any of that weight to start showing up in my chest—I'm going to get rid of them.

In theory this means I could put the bras I actually wear in the drawer instead of hanging them from my doorknob. The doorknob storage is pretty convenient though and gives me a visual reminder of when I need to do laundry, so probably not.

Went to another museum this week to see the second half of an art exhibit from another venue and some other exhibits. Could have lived without seeing a couple of things in their spooky for Halloween exhibit, but otherwise, thumbs up.

Shot 311 photographs and 6 videos. Haven't really looked at them yet but the sky was so blue for a couple of days! Also went to an outdoor sculpture exhibit at a location with cool architecture and had a grand time. Soul food.
